Race comment
OVERVIEW: They say the number 13 is lucky for some, and unbelievably we’re siding with the commonly cursed integer for the second race in succession. Let’s speak openly; on natural talent STRUVE (13) is in a different league to his Rising Stars rivals tonight. It’s also true that he makes Allen Jakovich seem consistent and stable. Tonight, Jason Lee has two options at his disposal. Given he follows about a fast beginner in PUNTARNO STRIDE (13) the rockstar can press forward with intent knowing any sane adversary will hand hi the front if he won’t take no for an answer. Alternatively, he can pray for early pace and save STRUVE (13) for one blinding run. Either way the best of that bloke would win this by panels so $3.70 seems outrageously reasonable. Should he go under, heaps of this can prevail. Best placed is JILLIBY LORENZO (9) who beat this favourite home two starts back in the much stronger Hamilton Cup but strong cases can also be made for PUNTARNO STRIDE (6) who may make a more committed play for the top here than at heat level, MONGIANA (4) who will excite the SP profilers after starting very short last start and ALICE KAY (3) who claimed her heat but faces a much stiffer challenge seven days later. It truth it would also be folly to discount HEAVEN IN LOCKSLEY (11) and also HEREHECOMES (12) who would be one of the best $151 chances you’re ever likely to see.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: They say the number 13 is lucky for some, and unbelievably we’re siding with the commonly cursed integer for the second race in succession. Let’s speak openly; on natural talent STRUVE (13) is in a different league to his Rising Stars rivals tonight. It’s also true that he makes Allen Jakovich seem consistent and stable. Tonight, Jason Lee has two options at his disposal. Given he follows about a fast beginner in PUNTARNO STRIDE (13) the rockstar can press forward with intent knowing any sane adversary will hand hi the front if he won’t take no for an answer. Alternatively, he can pray for early pace and save STRUVE (13) for one blinding run. Either way the best of that bloke would win this by panels so $3.70 seems outrageously reasonable. Should he go under, heaps of this can prevail. Best placed is JILLIBY LORENZO (9) who beat this favourite home two starts back in the much stronger Hamilton Cup but strong cases can also be made for PUNTARNO STRIDE (6) who may make a more committed play for the top here than at heat level, MONGIANA (4) who will excite the SP profilers after starting very short last start and ALICE KAY (3) who claimed her heat but faces a much stiffer challenge seven days later. It truth it would also be folly to discount HEAVEN IN LOCKSLEY (11) and also HEREHECOMES (12) who would be one of the best $151 chances you’re ever likely to see.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: They say the number 13 is lucky for some, and unbelievably we’re siding with the commonly cursed integer for the second race in succession. Let’s speak openly; on natural talent STRUVE (13) is in a different league to his Rising Stars rivals tonight. It’s also true that he makes Allen Jakovich seem consistent and stable. Tonight, Jason Lee has two options at his disposal. Given he follows about a fast beginner in PUNTARNO STRIDE (13) the rockstar can press forward with intent knowing any sane adversary will hand hi the front if he won’t take no for an answer. Alternatively, he can pray for early pace and save STRUVE (13) for one blinding run. Either way the best of that bloke would win this by panels so $3.70 seems outrageously reasonable. Should he go under, heaps of this can prevail. Best placed is JILLIBY LORENZO (9) who beat this favourite home two starts back in the much stronger Hamilton Cup but strong cases can also be made for PUNTARNO STRIDE (6) who may make a more committed play for the top here than at heat level, MONGIANA (4) who will excite the SP profilers after starting very short last start and ALICE KAY (3) who claimed her heat but faces a much stiffer challenge seven days later. It truth it would also be folly to discount HEAVEN IN LOCKSLEY (11) and also HEREHECOMES (12) who would be one of the best $151 chances you’re ever likely to see.

Best placed is JILLIBY LORENZO (9) who beat this favourite home two starts back in the much stronger Hamilton Cup but strong cases can also be made for PUNTARNO STRIDE (6) who may make a more committed play for the top here than at heat level, MONGIANA (4) who will excite the SP profilers after starting very short last start and ALICE KAY (3) who claimed her heat but faces a much stiffer challenge seven days later. It truth it would also be folly to discount HEAVEN IN LOCKSLEY (11) and also HEREHECOMES (12) who would be one of the best $151 chances you’re ever likely to see.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: They say the number 13 is lucky for some, and unbelievably we’re siding with the commonly cursed integer for the second race in succession. Let’s speak openly; on natural talent STRUVE (13) is in a different league to his Rising Stars rivals tonight. It’s also true that he makes Allen Jakovich seem consistent and stable. Tonight, Jason Lee has two options at his disposal. Given he follows about a fast beginner in PUNTARNO STRIDE (13) the rockstar can press forward with intent knowing any sane adversary will hand hi the front if he won’t take no for an answer. Alternatively, he can pray for early pace and save STRUVE (13) for one blinding run. Either way the best of that bloke would win this by panels so $3.70 seems outrageously reasonable. Should he go under, heaps of this can prevail. Best placed is JILLIBY LORENZO (9) who beat this favourite home two starts back in the much stronger Hamilton Cup but strong cases can also be made for PUNTARNO STRIDE (6) who may make a more committed play for the top here than at heat level, MONGIANA (4) who will excite the SP profilers after starting very short last start and ALICE KAY (3) who claimed her heat but faces a much stiffer challenge seven days later. It truth it would also be folly to discount HEAVEN IN LOCKSLEY (11) and also HEREHECOMES (12) who would be one of the best $151 chances you’re ever likely to see.
